Default Tortorella with big praise for Gulutzan

Quote:
think he's progressive," Tortorella said after the Blue Jackets' morning skate. "I think he's got a really interesting insight to the game. I think he's a terrific coach, I really do."
Quote:
"Gully was being chased by a lot of people at that point in time during the summer. A number of teams were after him. He was driving back home and I called him and I could tell right on the phone call … I don't know where he was but the phone would cut out and he would have to pull over and call me back … but I could tell, just through the amount of work I did in asking people about him that he was the right guy for us."
Quote:
"Terrific guy, terrific family. Very intellectual about the game. That's where the game is going. A lot of different things are being brought into coaching and I think Gully is on top of those things."
Kiss of death for Gully? Torts giving him praise.

I do see his system slowly taking form in the team.
